    I can't find that model on the Canada/USA official website, maybe they used a different or not available here yet?

    Yeah, the looks doesn't matter. The most important thing is the performance.
    I'm looking for something close too the Yonex VT80 from Apacs.

    except VH, all (T200/300/L70) are stiff.

    3U T200 & T300 with same spec. are identical.

    Did anybody use Tantrum 200/300 with 22lb or less string tension?

    I am thinking how T200 will play if I string at 22lbs or less. Any idea?

    Find that T200 isw slow to swing. Its like the racket is not very aerodynamic

    .. but no doubt the racket is the best for all round play at that price range.

    I should take out the words "at * that * price * range" from my previous statement. T200 is one of the best among several other high end rackets.

    Currently I got Dunlop AeroGel 4D Tour - The racket that Wong Choong Hann used to use. Oh! - it is awesome. It is stopping my temptation to buy VT80.

    I play singles with 4D Tour and Double with VH2000. I do not have any comparison on the same ground. But what I can say is - 4D tour is slim but stable. You can do flick service easily, response or recovery is very fast, it is a balance racket (but I feel slightly head heavy) - so I am better in defense and control (good for deceptions, which is I feel very difficult with VH2000). Most importantly it can deliver good amount of power (easy to execute acute angle smashes; I feel 4D delivers more acute angle smash that that of with VH2000) and have great repulsion (fast drive and fore-/backhand clears'; more or less same like VH2000). Overall I felt easy to use; easier than VH2000 (just one game I played singles). I do not use it for doubles because I am kind of afraid to break this racket, the paint/design is really good and have nice details (4D braided aerogels). Some time I will upload photos in equipment thread in BC. I can say from my experience that it plays as good as T200 with added advantage of more aerodynamic frame and shaft structure. Impact shock - T200 > 4D Tour > or = VH2000. I am using 25lbs in all of them. Stiffness - T200 > 4D Tour ~ VH2000. Frame weight, 3Us - T200 & VH2000 (88-90gm) ~ 4D (87gm).

    I got this lethal x18 as well. Mine is 4U, light racquet, good for defend and speedy playing style.
